My name is Christina and I need to change. Period.For years I have been doing the research and after seeing Forks over knives and Food matters there was no way around it anymore.My body is telling me to stop abusing it.My mind wants to live on a healthier planet!I was never one to go with a latest diet,... I did fell for the meat eating bodybuild belief.But boy, does it make me tired.I fell in love with Brendan Brazier's books, Ani Phyo's and I just recieved Vegan bodybuilding by Robert.I do not want to be a skinny fat person, I want stong, sexy muscles and a healthy BF%.So , that is what I am gonna do!A mission, a clear goal.I just started to become a Fyto- and Nutrition specialist and an extra course in Somatic psychology.I just wrapped up doing the NLP practitioner and my mind is strong!No more talk the talk ....walk the walk! #inspire others.

Got up at 11.... this was a a bumpy start and let's keep it positive...it was all vegan and mostly clean.I noticed it was not much so will do better tomorrow. More greens.Water intake during the day enough! and green tea.I had a family gathering at night and had to spend 5 hours on a cold tennis court watching my boyfriend play his finals.My back was feeling better so slow start with riding my bike.

I wanted to add my measurements.I did take before foto's on December 31rd 2011 but frankly...I am too ashamed to put them up yet. I hope to see a difference in a month or 2 and then post before and after together.

I noticed a great fatigue and chatted with TheAlliB tonight to get my nutrition tighter.Had planned a workout in the afternoon but I fell asleep! I only did 10 min of cross training and was outside a bit.Food was all vegan ...not disirable and Allison told me more food. #sounds like a planI think I need to lay off the bread for a while too.

So this was my food list for today. ( All water and 3 green tea)

Meal 1Juice of 1 lemon and water followed by 1 cup quinoa with raisins and vanilla1 teaspoon flaxseeds and 1 spoon sunflower seeds

I noticed today is hard.I looked in the mirror and got a case of the "get there now -itis".Why am I not SEEING results I ask myself.I know it takes about 7 weeks of training and clean eating to SEE something.What messes me up is I FEEL thinner on the inside since started this way of eating.My body is not craving anything. My head is. I want to feel comforted...it comes down to being scared.No more false beliefs.Sticking with this.Sticking with me.I am focussing on health.I am beautifull any-way.

Remember that one of the side effects of clean eating is detoxing. And not only headaches, but fatigue also, is a sign of detox.One way to help get over it faster is to flush it with more water by drinking water more than your NORMAL amount (and yes, you will be going to the bathroom to flush the toxins away!).

Another reason why I think it might be detox is because you said you don't feel like eating more. Sometimes the detoxing body doesn't want to deal with digesting food, and your body is telling you that.

Your body is also telling you to take it easy, by making you fatigue and actually making you take naps. it will be hard to detox and perhaps exercise to the amount you want to do.

This should only last about a month or so (depending on how much of a detox you have - toxins are stored in fat cells usually - so if you have a certain amount of fat cells, you might have a certain amount of toxins to release).
